Online Safety

A student at Milan High was arrested and charged with two felonies for a computer threat and a false bomb threat. This was his post "You don’t know what it’s like, I constantly fantasize of blowing up the wing as I walk away with the explosions behind me … .” A friend stated that was a bomb threat and he resonded: "Yes, let me make it more clear, I Anthony Caputo will bomb the new project based learning wing of Milan.”After that he added, “let the suspension begin! Maybe now I won’t have to come back to this god forsaken wing again.”
 I believe threats like this should be taken seriously, but should have some boundries as far as teen saracasim. It should always be checked out in case of a mentally unstable person however. I believe he should be punished, but only with a misdemeanor because if you read the post you can tell this person wasn't being serious. He was only stating that he wished the school hadn't made the new wing. I myself have felt upset about school items in peticular as well, but I have the courtesy to not make such drastic posts about it.

Feed Readers

I feel that the google reader is easier to use than the new one. In google you can just seacrh and subscribe, but the new one makes you copy and paste the url and then subscribe. Also, Google can help you find all kinds of blogs, while, technorati made it complicated and hard to find anything interesting.
